Plug a cable into each side, and the tester loops through the connections and shows the result on LEDs: matching LEDs on both sides mean continuity, while mismatched or unlit LEDs point to a problem. It supports 10 connector types, including 3-pin and 5-pin XLR, 1\/4\" and 1\/8\" TRS, HDMI, RJ45 (EtherCON), BNC, RCA, and powerCON.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cvideo controls width=\"100%\"\u003e\n  \u003csource src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/videos\/c\/o\/v\/d7f063b84b12477c950e19a9f65e27eb.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\"\u003e\u003c\/video\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug-in-and-read testing: LEDs show continuity at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports 1\/4\" TRS, 1\/8\" TRS, 3-pin XLR, 5-pin XLR, BNC, HDMI, powerCON, powerCON TRUE1, RCA, and RJ45 (EtherCON)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate sender and receiver units for testing wires run through walls or across a venue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio signal indicator and tone tester switch (-50 dB, 10 dB, 0 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHDMI switch with slow, medium, and fast settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire tracker with status LEDs and a ground (GND) indicator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual power switches and status LEDs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable steel housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowered by two 9V batteries (not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/2308\/3005\/files\/cableguy_hero_2_0001_1920x1920_d8d88747-d95e-42a6-a20e-11eb85604b4e.webp?v=1792183292\" alt=\"Blizzard Cable Guy cable tester sender and receiver units with XLR cables plugged in\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho Is the Blizzard Cable Guy Ideal For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLighting designers and stage technicians checking DMX and power cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio crews testing XLR, TRS, and RCA runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallers verifying RJ45, EtherCON, and HDMI runs before load-in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRental houses and venues that need to check cable stock between events\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBlizzard Cable Guy cable tester (sender and receiver units)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich cables can the Blizzard Cable Guy test?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e1\/4\" TRS, 1\/8\" TRS, 3-pin XLR, 5-pin XLR, BNC, HDMI, powerCON, powerCON TRUE1, RCA, and RJ45 (EtherCON).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlug one end of the cable into each side of the tester.
